뜻
With effort and determination, any task can be accomplished.
문화적 배경
This phrase is often linked to the concept of 'Hemmat' (high resolve). In Iranian schools, children are taught that effort is the key to everything, a value reflected in both modern proverbs and classical poetry. In the traditional market, this phrase is a point of pride for 'Ostad-kārs' (masters). It signifies that a true professional never says 'no' to a challenge. Among Iranians living abroad, this phrase is often used to describe the 'immigrant hustle'—the ability to succeed in a new country despite language barriers and obstacles. The 'Pahlavāni' (heroic) culture of Iran emphasizes physical and moral strength. This proverb aligns with the Pahlavān's belief that no feat of strength is impossible with faith and practice.
